FTP backup in the redesigned ISPmanager5 control panel

ISP Manager has a backup feature that allows you to back up all user data: sites, SSL certificates, mailboxes, databases and save them either to your local disk or to a separate FTP server.

To create and configure FTP backups, go to "Tools → Backups "

In the window that opens, specify the settings for our storage:

• Storage type - select FTP.

In the FTP section, enter the settings for the remote FTP server where the backups will be uploaded:

• ftp server address;
• connection port - 21;
• Specify the address of the folder where the server backups will be stored;
• ftp server user name and password.

Save the entered data.

The settings will be saved, the "scheduler(cron) " will have a line in addition to the user and service tasks of ISPmanager5

/usr/local/mgr5/sbin/cron-ispmgr sbin/backup2 >/dev/null 2>&1 - ISPmanager backup task

Go to "System → Scheduler "

To edit, click "Edit ".

By default, a backup is created every day at 3am server time

In the opened section configure the time and frequency of backup creation:

We choose basic mode to simplify the scheduler setup.

• The frequency of the task is "Daily";
• Run at - We recommend backing up at night

Creating a copy increases the load on the server, which may cause sites to open with a delay.

Save the settings.
